DIAGNOSIS

This brief, practical text covers all aspects of tactical emergency medicine—the practice of emergency medicine in the field, rather than at the hospital, during disasters, police or military conflicts, mass events, and community incidents. Key topics covered include hostage survival, insertion and extraction techniques, continuum of force, medical support, planning and triage, medical evaluation in the incident zone, care in custody, medical control of incident site, decontamination, community communication, and more. Boxed definitions, case scenarios, and treatment algorithms are included. The concluding chapter presents /"real world/" scenarios to run tactical teams through and lists recommended training programs and continuing education.

ISBN: 978-0-7817-9670-5
Price: $299.00

 
DIAGNOSIS

Featuring over 1,700 illustrations—including full-color photomicrographs, drawings, and radiographs—this Second Edition is a comprehensive, practical guide to diagnosing musculoskeletal disorders. The book details the pathologic and radiologic characteristics of all bone and joint diseases, including arthritis, metastatic bone disease, osteoporosis, trauma, osteomyelitis, developmental bone disorders, and tumor-like lesions. A section on soft-tissue pathology discusses meniscal injuries, bursa, ligaments, and tendons. Although primarily a diagnostic aid, the text includes therapeutic suggestions. A glossary defines specific orthopaedic disorders.

This edition has new chapters on fracture callus; the growth plate and dwarfs; tissue/bone banking—bone grafts; and giant cell tumors and differential diagnosis of giant cell lesions. New appendices cover bone biopsy and fine needle aspiration and immunohistochemistry.

A companion Website will include a full-color image bank and an interactive quiz bank.

Title: Stoller's Atlas of Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine
Author(s): David W Stoller MD, FACR
ISBN: 978-0-7817-8389-7
Price: $299.00

 
DIAGNOSIS

Using 1,298 full-color anatomic drawings and 230 3-Tesla MR normal anatomy images, this atlas provides a detailed view of the intricacies of musculoskeletal anatomy. Dr. Stoller, through extensive cadaver dissections and imaging, has developed and proven new concepts on many musculoskeletal injuries, including hip impingement and patterns of meniscal tears. In this atlas, he provides radiologists, orthopaedists, and other specialists with the anatomic knowledge needed to accurately diagnose musculoskeletal injuries.

Muscles are shown in great detail, including origins and insertions. Skeletal structures are shown in relation to muscles, tendons, nerves, and ligaments. Clear legends describe the function and directional movement of muscles. Illustrations show both normal anatomy and mechanisms of injury, and Pearls and Pitfalls sections reinforce critical information.

Title: diFiore's Atlas of Histology with Functional Correlations
Edition: Eleventh

DIAGNOSIS

diFiore's Atlas of Histology with Functional Correlations, Eleventh Edition, explains basic histology concepts through full-color, schematic illustrations. These illustrations are supplemented by more than 450 digitized full-color online photomicrographs of histological images. Part One explains tissues and their relationship to their systems; Part Two addresses organs in a similar way.

Targeting undergraduate, allied health and first and second year medical students, the Eleventh Edition includes new and enhanced images through redrawing and digitization to provide increased detail. This edition also features updated illustrations and information on the functions of cells, tissues, and organs of the body based on advances in research and expert recommendations.

The atlas' student-friendly /"Functional Correlations/" sections help students study structure and function together. Students also benefit from a /"realistic/" perspective as more than 70 micrographs appear adjacent to color illustrations.

A companion Website offers student and instructor versions of diFiore's Interactive Atlas with all of the images from the book.
